Answer 2

I guess you are talking about Toronto Canada. Yes there is a small league played over there but of course it is only just started in the past 20 years, here is some info: Australian rules football in Canada has been relatively recently introduced to the country through a series of exhibition matches which began in 1987 and by 1989 had grown into amateur competition.

Australian Football is currently played only in 3 Canadian Provinces and territories of Canada - Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia. The Ontario league, centred around Toronto is considered the largest outside of Australia, and there are clubs in Ottawa, London, Calgary and Vancouver, Victoria and Burnaby. Some of Canada's largest urban centres, including Montreal, Quebec City or Winnipeg are not currently represented by a club. A club was briefly based in Edmonton but folded in 2003.

By 2006, there were over 420 senior (approximately 250 Canadian national) Australian rules football players in Canada, an increase of 25% from 2005
